Table 1.

Demographic information of the subjects from the ADHD-200 sample.

Group N Males Mean age (SD) – years
TD controls 546 286 (52.4%) 12.29 (3.46)
Combined 249 193 (77.5%) 11.21 (3.02)
Inattentive 122 93 (76.2%) 12.16 (3.00)
Hyper/impulsive 12 10 (83.0%) 12.49 (4.62)
Whole ADHD sample 383 296 (77.3%) 11.56 (2.99)

TD, typically developing. Although the two-sample t-tests comparing TD controls vs. ADHD (p = 0.001) and combined vs. inattentive (p = 0.003) indicate statistical differences in age, these differences were not relevant for classification (total scores of a logistic regression based solely on age are 0.50 and 0.49, respectively, i.e., very close to the scores by chance).
